Key Features

Wireless Active Subwoofer: Feel the power of tight, thundering bass when
you’re watching a movie, show or concert.

SoundShare™: Simplify the installation of your AudioBar by eliminating the
need to have a wired connection between the TV and AudioBar. Simply plug the
main bar into AC power, the subwoofer to AC power and follow the simple directions
to wirelessly connect your AudioBar to select Samsung TV’s.

Smart On: When used with a 2013 Samsung TV, you will be able to power on
the AudioBar and control the volume right from the TV remote.

3D Sound Plus: Compliment the images you see on screen with the full sound
of 3D Sound Plus. By analyzing the depth of the 3D image, 3D Sound Plus synchronizes
the sound to match the motion and depth of the image. Now you can enjoy a
fully immersive 3D experience.

USB Host: The range of music sources that you can enjoy is limitlessly widened
to those of USB memory, external hard disk, MP3 Player and PMP (supporting
music file formats: MP3, AAC, WMA, OGG, FLAC, WAV).

Audio Return Channel (ARC): Eliminates the need to use two cable connections.
Instead, all you need is one HDMI® connection between your AudioBar bar and
TV. TV audio will be sent to the AudioBar and AudioBar audio (from connected
external devices) will be sent to the TV using the same HDMI® cable.

HDMI®: Get superior picture and sound from your HD source. The High-Definition
Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a digital connection that can transmit HD video
and audio over a single cable. Use it to optimize the image quality when you
connect your TV to high-definition sources such as HD cable TV, satellite
receiver, or Blu-ray Disc ® Player. It also features CEC capability, so you
can use a remote control handset.

I bought this soundbar to go with my 60in Samsung LED TV. The sound is very good but not great. It is much better than just the regular TV, but not as good as true surround sound. At first I used the optical line, but that required using 2 remotes. I then connected it with sound share, and that worked well, but then the TV updated itself with new firmware in August. Now the TV no longer works with the soundshare.

This is a great product. However, the software for this device, and apparently all current samsung tvs and sound bars, was not designed with a user in mind. I'm connecting this new sound bar (hw-f450/za) to a samsung tv (un46c6300). You can EITHER have the sound bar turn on (not off) with your tv remote and not control the volume (anynet disabled and auto power on) OR you can control the volume and not turn on the sound bar when your tv turns on (anynet on and auto power disabled). These results ONLY work with BOTH an optical cable AND an HDMI cable connected, forcing you to have additional cables running between devices. I also have the following setup: tv: un40c6300. sound bar: Hw-c450/xaa and I can turn on and off the sound bar and control the volume with any samsung remote (dvd or tv) and I only have the optical cable connected. I've communicated several times with Samsung support and there is no way to have these two basic functions work from the same remote. I'm not sure why Samsung chose to remove this feature and force users to have multiple remotes and cables in order to use this sound bar with any of their tvs. This is a terrible user experience. I currently own 5 different samsung tvs, all over 40". Each is connected to at least one other samsung device (DVD or sound bar). I have always appreciated the way Samsung devices all worked together seamlessly. I can no longer trust that their products will work together. They are obviously being developed in silos and the teams are not talking to each other. Since this is the case, I will stop recommending Samsung products to my friends and family. I will also stop purchasing their products for my home.

I received this item as a gift. Its pretty cool. The sub woofer links to the sound bar wirelessly. I use it for when i play games, watch movies, tv shows, ect... Its sounds great. i recommend it all the time to everyone. Its Awesome!!!

I bought this unit 16 months ago and it has been nothing but junk. Our first issue was every time we turn the unit and tv on after about ten seconds it switches back from HDMI 1 to D.in. Then you have to use the remote to switch back to HDMI 1. Not a big deal but annoying. We contacted "tech support" and they recommended we create a return form and ship the unit back. ( I cannot list the cost out of pocket due to this sites policies ). They returned the unit and said they could not find anything wrong with it. We still have to switch back to HDMI 1 every time the unit is powered on. Now the subwoofer has stopped syncing and does not work. We have tried the reset ID procedure several times with no luck. Samsung makes some nice products, this is not one of them.

I enjoy this sound bar and sub. It adds depth and dynamic sound that is not quite there in just TV speakers. Makes movie watching much better. Only drawback is the location of the optical plug in, it is to close to the body of the sound bar which makes it difficult to plug in and makes the location of the cord go in the wrong direction to contain it.

Does not come with proper cords for setup for premium sound, have to purchase yourself. SUB is not getting any power and wont come on. I am an avid Samsung Customer, all phones and TVs are Samsung, very disappointed with product quality lately, I only purchased sound bar for poor sound quality on my TV.

We bought an HW-F450 to use with our 60" Samsung Smart TV. I regret having made the purchase. The sound bar unit provides bass, but essentially no treble. Higher-end frequency response is abysmal, and I have not been able to find any way to adjust it to equal the sound from the TV itself. And unfortunately, when the sound bar is activated, the sound from the TV is deactivated, which means that the sound goes from relatively clear to horribly muffled. Every time we try turning this thing on, we wind up turning it off--the sound from the TV is better. In terms of features, what I would have hoped for was a product that could be set up and then would turn on and off with the TV--with the sound level integrated with the TV and controlled by the TV's remote. That doesn't happen with this. The display is small and not very readable from a distance. We have been very happy with our Samsung TVs, but this sound bar is a dud. The only reason to give it one star is to get the system to take the rating..
